To whom it concerns:

   In regards to the recent discussions in comp.sys.mac.programmer in support
of a student developers program, I agree totally.
   I am currently in the process of teaching myself how to program the Mac.
So far I have bought Think Pascal, IM I, and one other book (I can't think of
the name right now).  Since I am on a students budget, this puts a crimp on
my spending.  I cannot afford to buy much more than I already have.  And since
I cannot afford to buy a Mac for myself, I have to use the Mac's in one of the
computer labs here on campus.  This can be a real problem if there is a class
using the lab.
   I would really appreciate it if there was a program for student developers.
I am serious about becoming a developer for the Macintosh, but I am finding it
difficult to pay for all the materials.
   I hope somebody at Apple is listening.
